Brenda Upton Photography bio picture

Welcome

Hi there!  And welcome to my blog! 

I'm Brenda, and I LOVE being a photographer.  Being able to do something for a living that never really feels like "work" is amazing.  I am a 2005 graduate of the University of Georgia where I studied art and photography.  Since then I starting digging my heals in all areas of photography trying to find my niche.  Once I tagged along as a second shooter at a wedding with a friend, I knew I had found it.  I love that I get to be a part of such an important day in people's lives and document it for generations to pass on. 

When I'm not shooting or editing, you can find me hanging out with my husband, Ben at home in Stone Mountain.  And next to us on the couch are our two favorite "manimals", our pups Jack and Shorty.  This blog will not only follow my recent wedding and portrait work, but you'll get an occasional post about the happenings in our neck of the woods. 

So, enjoy!  And please contact me if you have any questions or would like to set up a meeting!

Hehe…I knew you’d love that title, Stace!
Stacy is one of my best friends from college who is also a great photographer herself! I did a family shoot for her this past weekend and since she is such a blog-stalker, I thought I’d throw a couple awesome pics of her on the blog. I...

Sneak Peek…of some sweet Cheeks!

I’m in the midst of editing a ton of shoots and weddings, but how could I deprive you one more moment of Aubrey and her delicious cheeks! I had a strong urge to nibble on them, but I resisted. It was hard to do:) Such a cute and happy baby!
